Who Else Knows

Many people know - and have exposed -- Fairtax as utter nonsense.

The best way to learn how goofy fairtax is -- is to just study what Fairtax OWN spokesmen say about it, and read their OWN fine print.

But this is no secret.  There are NO economist in America who support a trillion dollar hidden tax on government, there are NO economist in America who support taxing people 200% of their income.   There are NO economist in America who support Fairtax-- because that is what Fairtax is.

There are leading economist who have exposed Fairtax as the goofy farce it is.

•   Dale Jorgenson, the leading "researcher" that Fairtax said they base their plan on -- DOES NOT support Faitax, and says it can't possibly work.
•  Bruce Bartlett, one of the leading economic writers,  who played a pivotal role in Ronald Reagan's tax cuts, says Fairtax is a farce, an absurdity.
• Wall Street Journal
• Joint Committe on Taxation, a study done at the request of President Bush, showed Fairtax to be profoundly disinegenous - aka lying.
• Gale,
• Neal Boortz, ironically, has shown Fairtax to be goofy -- Boortz wrote in "Straightening out Some Confusion" article, that we all would (essentially) need to take a 20% cut in pay for Fairtax to bring prices down.
• National Review
• Libertarian CPA
